The guidelines in this document are intended to assist the Web-at-Risk's project's curators in developing plans for the collections they will create using the project's Web Archiving Service (WAS). A web collection typically consists of a group of web-sites related by a common subject, theme, or event. Librarians will notice that some familiar concepts and practices from collection planning for print materials easily transfer to collection planning for web-published materials while some new concepts and unfamiliar practices are introduced. To effectively manage collections of web-published materials, it is good practice to either create new plans or modify existing collection plans to address these concepts and practices.</p>Collection Planning Guidelines2011-04-28T13:31:19-05:00http://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc33006/<p><a href="http://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc33006/"><img alt="Collection Planning Guidelines" title="Collection Planning Guidelines" src="http://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc33006/thumbnail/"/></a></p><p>This report is part of the Web-at-Risk project.

The Web-at-Risk project is one of eight digital preservation projects funded in 2004 by the Library of Congress. Each of the projects represents a collaborative effort to preserve for future generations born-digital or digitized cultural heritage materials and collections. The Web-at-Risk project is a 3-year collaborative effort of the California Digital Library, the University of North Texas (UNT), and New York University. The project will develop a Web Archiving Service that enables curators to build collections of web-published materials. The content will be collected largely from US federal and state government agencies, but will also include political policy documents, campaign literature, and information surrounding political movements. The project work will be conducted along four paths of overlapping activities. The Web-at-Risk Project work paths include (1) Content identification, selection, and acquisition; (2) Content harvest and analysis; (3) Content ingest, retention, and transfer; and (4) Partnership building.</p>Focus Group Report: California Digital Library, Oakland, CA, August 31, 20052011-04-28T13:31:19-05:00http://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc33000/<p><a href="http://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc33000/"><img alt="Focus Group Report: California Digital Library, Oakland, CA, August 31, 2005" title="Focus Group Report: California Digital Library, Oakland, CA, August 31, 2005" src="http://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc33000/thumbnail/"/></a></p><p>This report is part of the Web-at-Risk project.
